NPM Version Built with Bun sponsor

Bunup helps you ship TypeScript/React libraries faster with great DX โ€” built on Bun's native bundler.

Performance

Instant builds by design. With Bunโ€™s native speed, builds and rebuilds are extremely quick, even in monorepos. Faster feedback loops, higher productivity, calmer flow.

๐Ÿš€ Quick Start

Create a TypeScript file:

// src/index.ts
export function greet(name: string): string {
	return `Hello, ${name}!`;
}

Build it instantly:

bunx bunup

Outputs to dist/ with ESM and .d.ts types.

Need CommonJS too?

bunx bunup --format esm,cjs

Want to generate and sync package exports automatically?

bunx bunup --exports
